How we work

Our Process

A deliberate path from first conversation to a plan you can live with, then a partnership that keeps it current.

How we work

Unhurried at the start. Relentless after.

Good advice begins with listening. Our process is designed to understand your situation fully before we recommend anything, and then to keep the plan current for as long as you work with us.

Four steps, one plan

01

Introduction

A relaxed first conversation about your goals, your concerns and how you like to make decisions. You leave with a written summary.

02

Discovery

We gather statements, tax returns and documents, and meet with you to understand the details behind them.

03

Your plan

Your team presents a written plan with clear recommendations, costs and next steps. You decide what to act on.

04

Ongoing partnership

We implement, monitor and meet at least twice a year, updating the plan whenever your life changes.

Your first 90 days

What happens after you say yes.

Week 1

Welcome meeting

Meet your full team, set up secure portal access and agree on how you want to communicate.

Weeks 2 to 4

Accounts and documents

We handle account transfers and collect the documents your plan depends on.

Weeks 5 to 8

Plan delivery

Your written plan, investment policy and tax projection, presented together.

Weeks 9 to 12

First actions

Beneficiary updates, tax moves and portfolio transitions, done in the right order.

Questions

Working with us.

  • Who do you typically work with?

    Families, business owners, executives and institutions who want planning, investment, tax and estate advice from one coordinated team. Most of our clients have at least $2 million in investable assets or expect to after a business sale or liquidity event.

  • What happens in the first meeting?

    We listen. The first conversation is about your goals, your worries and how you make decisions, not about products or portfolios. You leave with a short written summary of what we heard and whether we think we can help.

  • Will I work with one advisor or a team?

    Both. You have one lead advisor who knows your plan best, supported by a CPA, an estate specialist, a portfolio manager and a client experience associate who all work from the same plan.

Request an introduction

Your first conversation is an easy one.

Tell us a little about what is on your mind. A member of our team will call within one business day to arrange an unhurried first meeting, in person or by video. There is no cost and no obligation.
